    *Give a listen to Climate Talks 101: COP27 if you want to hear us set the scene for our COP27 episodes*

    The 27th United Nations Climate Change Conference or Conference of the Parties (COP27) is taking place right now in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. The conference has been taking place since the first UN climate agreement in 1992. COP27 is a unique opportunity for the world to come together and make active decisions in fighting climate change. What makes COP27 unique is that unlike the previous conferences, loss and damage, or climate reparation is high on the agenda. As climate change calamities increase, this topic must be addressed and supported.

    Giulia Belotti, Raunak Shrestha, Manasa Subedee and María Elvira López dialed in our Anthropause hotline (aka Zoom) to talk about topics surrounding the energy crisis, water, children and youth advocacy, and environmental justice for our pre-COP27 segment.

    We will see you next week with our Mid-COP27 segment for Episode 5. Follow us on our social media for weekly updates.

  • Hello everyone - Namaste!

    *Please listen to EP 2.3 Pakistan Floods before listening to this episode*

    Cities worldwide are witnessing an increase in the frequency, intensity, and impact of flooding. This increase can be attributed to climate change, sea level rise, changing weather patterns, rapid urbanization and a combination of these factors. Climate Change Adaptation strategies today must be prioritized to mitigate the effects of such extreme flooding events to increase resilience. Though a relatively new term (not a concept?), nature-based solutions (NbS) are gradually being introduced and integrated into flood risk management. In the second part of Episode 4, we continue speaking with World Resources Institute (WRI) India's Kartiki Naik (Program Manager with the Urban Development team under the Sustainable Cities and Transport program) and Sahil Kanekar (Senior Program Associate with the Urban Development team under the Sustainable Cities and Transport program). We explore ideas around flood defense, community resilience, NbS, and the gap in the NbS literature in the Global North and the Global South.

    We will see you next month with another episode! Follow us on Instagram, Twitter, and LinkedIn for weekly updates.

  • Hello everyone - Namaste!

    We are alarmed at how little people are talking about the deadly flooding Pakistan is going through right now. Therefore, we have taken a few minutes to talk about this natural calamity in EP 2.3 Pakistan Floods. We have given you the basic facts to understand the issue at stake. We hope you will use this information to spread awareness and also support Pakistan in any way possible. Climate change is here and spending a few minutes of your day having conversations about it and taking actions against is the bare minimum. Give Pakistan the same attention you would give if 1/3rd of Global North cities like NYC were under water.
